The Quadrafire Mt Vernon Pellet Stove And Fireplace Insert

The Quadrafire Mt Vernon is Quadrafire's most powerful pellet stove. It's built of cast iron, putting out 60,200 btu., with a 47 hour burn time and the ability to heat 3,800 square feet.

It can be fuelled with wood pellets of all grades, corn, sunflower seeds, and wheat. Controls on the programmable thermostat allow fuel type selection without altering settings on the stove. The thermostat also has a low fuel warning.

The unit has a large heat exchanger and a cast iron ribbed firebox back for good rates of heat transfer and comfort quiet blowers to move the heat around.

All that is needed to utilise the battery backup system is a charged 12 volt battery and the optional power cord. See comments below.

For ease of maintenance, and to deal with the by products of the high ash fuel this stove is capable of burning, it is fitted with the auto clean firepot system.

This cleaning system comes into action When the thermostat gets up to temperature, on shutdown, or when the desired amount of burn time has passed. See below for more details.

Cast iron warming shelves are an option with the freestanding model.

Auto Clean Firepot

The floor of the firepot in the Quadrafire Mt Vernon will open and deposit the ash into the ash pan. It takes approximately 2 minutes to complete the auto-clean cycle. The floor will then shut, and if the thermostat is still calling for heat, the fire will start again.
